I've got one. I'll post it later if nobody else has one
Well,
I just went down and snapped some shots of one I've got open. It's a 2-inch M that's been cut down to "Billy Shehane" spec of 1.650Wx1.750T octagonal. It's spec'd as a magnum BF thru-port right-eject and the empty case hanging around it is a 300WSM.
The barrel is a 36", .950 muzzle with an inch-four-fifty shank.
I've tried to capture the mass of the thing.
The pix are poor but what particularly are you looking for?
I've included a pic of the cocking roller too.

Hey Al
I have got a Bat MB 1.4 Octagon on order and would like to how you would inlet a stock for a octagon shaped receiver?
Round or flat (with mud) or can you machine the inlet octagon specific?
I am going to epoxy the receiver and use it for 100-200 benchrest.
Thanks,
Vic

Thank you very much for the photos Al !!!
That is one massive looking action, very solid.

It looks like I'll be inletting this one myself on a small mill using a 1" round cutter for the barrel channel, "square" cutter for the sides and bottom and connecting the dots using a 45degree endmill.
It's going into a Shehane Big Dawg plywood stock. Billy sells his stuff with this inlet but I ordered this on un-inletted. I might just send it back to him!
It's chambered in my weird interpretation of 300WSM.
It doesn't currently have an ejector hole in the bf as it's designed as a pressure monster.
I've got a wire "blocker" designed for the right side so's I don't just throw the cases right through it and it's an experimental design. I don't know how it will end up as far as final configuration, I've got to run it first.
